Chapter 12. Notifications and event tracing

Sometimes a backup or restore procedure can last for 30 minutes or more. Acronis True
Image for Microsoft Small Business Server can notify you when it is finished through the
WinPopup service or e-mail. The program can also duplicate messages issued during the
operation or send you the full operation log after operation completion.
By default all notifications are disabled.

12.1 Email notification

To set up e-mail notification, select Tools -> Options -> Notifications -> E-mail:
Provide the e-mail address to which notifications will be sent. You can enter several
addresses separated by semicolons.
Provide the outgoing SMTP server name. A user name and a password might also be
needed if the SMTP server requires authentication.
Some Internet service providers require authentication on the incoming mail server before
being allowed to send anything. If this is your case, click Advanced and tick off Log on
to incoming mail server and provide the server name.
Filling up the From and Subject fields will help the e-mail client program filter
notifications to the appropriate folder. If the From field is left blank, messages will be
constructed as if they are from the destination address.
Below, in this window, you can choose whether you want to get notifications:
- when the operation is completed successfully (check Add full log to the notification
to add the full operation log to the message)
- when the operation failed (check Add full log to the notification to add the full
operation log to the message)
- during the operation when user interaction is required.
